Euphat & Tigris rejoined the Century in 2009 via
the back door Legacy rules. Long penalized by a short playing
time, E&T still drew consistently well and after completing
its ten-year apprenticeship has been returned to the grand stage
where the shields grow.

The rules for this event will be slightly different from the
standard Hans im Glueck (Tigris & Euphrates) and Mayfair
versions of the game. In the first round only, the first and
second players will make one action instead of the usual two.
In all subsequent rounds all players take two actions like normal.
All other rules are the same as printed.

The schedule will allow players to learn and participate in
an entire event in just one evening. On Saturday, the second
heat will be preceded by a demonstration, and immediately followed
by the Single Elimination rounds. In addition, a heat earlier
in the week will allow players an additional chance to advance.

Players will probably need to win only one game to advance.
If there are 32 or more players, 16 will advance.

Priority in advancing to the second round will be as follows:

1. Players who win their first game.
2. Players who win their second game.
3. Players who finish second in two games.
4. Players who finish second in one game.

Within groups 1, 2, 3 and 4 above, ties will be broken in
the following order:

1. Total result in two games played
2. Players who brought a game
3. Best margin of victory in any game (or smallest margin of
defeat), measured by the number of additional treasures the 2nd
place player would need to equal the winning score."
